Hello
Maybe my spam system is set up incorrectly?
I've some incoming messages being identified as spam by Spamhalter, and they get the ''X-SPAMHALTER: SPAM detected!'' header added to them. A filter, set in Mercury - Configuration - Filtering rules - Edit global rules..., looks for that header and moves the message to the 'spam' user ...

This looks like a really nasty way to spoof email headers and bypass spam filters. AFAICT Pegasus Mail wasn't tested by this security researcher:https://www.mailsploit.com/index Not sure if it would affect SpamHalter either. Comments welcome.

Maybe you copy by an accident your spam messages out of Junk folder? It says to Spamhalter: ''learn this as not-spam''.
Or you maybe lost your Spamhalter database in your mail directory. It is file words4.db3.
In both cases, best way to repair is to made corrections. Move missed spams to your junk folder, and move false positives ...

System resets Spam red signals to non Spam green! I am trying to make Spamhalter work on my laptop.My Spamhalter version embedded in Pegasus Mail is V 4.5.2.180
I have a corpus of about 100 spammy emails in the ''Junk or suspicious mail'' folder which is selected in Spamhalter as the Spam Folder.

All i do is forward it back to the notspam account and to the original addressee using Pegasus mail's bounce option. I'm pretty sure Spamhalter only marks message as spam but doesn't move anything. Content control is what actually moves it to the spamfolder for me.
The very first rule in my content control file recognizes ...

Please could someone help? I first of all had great difficulty finding where the spamhalter web site actually is (www.ararat.cz/doku.php/en:start (?)). Then on the site I can't find anywhere to actually download the initial database. Am I going to the wrong place/ doing the wrong thing? I do not have enough spam and ordinary emails to actually ...

I have a problem with Spamhalter. It has worked reliably nearly forever but recently has gone AWOL for short periods and nothing would be filtered at all. The last time I went looking in the logs and found that it was reporting a series of errors on SB_TRAIN, SB_MOVE, and SB_CLASSIFY, all of which showed the same message Could not retrieve data. ...

J_Aarni:I think you should run spamhaltersetup.exe from \mercury\daemons directory.
That was exactly it J. I simply had no idea that was there. I'm quite happy that there's now a solved thread relating to this.
Thanks for your help.

Hello :)
Without debug headers, the first 3 header lines of a message sent to <user>+spamtest@ start with X-SPAMHALTER.
Enabling debug headers, the first 24 header lines of a message sent to <user>+spamtest@ start with X-SPAMHALTER.
Every other message without +spamtest before the @, with or without ...

I've been using Content Control with the original spambust.dat and black/whitelists for some time. I thought I'd try Spamhalter to try to remove some of the manual work for myself.
As my subject states, I simply can't get any Spamhalter headers to appear on any messages. I trawled through this forum and believe I'm in the same ...
